The assessment consists of several sequential phases. Each phase starts with a tutorial that explains the screen, your tasks, and how you can contribute. You can repeat the tutorial anytime by clicking the “?” in the upper-right corner.
You won't need to be logged on exactly when a new phase starts, nor do you have to stay logged onto the system throughout the entire assessment. Instead, you'll log in when you have something to contribute, read, rate, or vote.
However, we recommend that you check in at the beginning of each phase, and definitely at the end, to ensure you can add all your contributions before it closes. Don’t hold back — you’ll remain entirely anonymous during the assessment, with only the hiring company able to access your information.
